Earth Sheltered Home With Acreage In Kuna
February 20th, 2008 categories: Featured Properties, For Sale By Owner, Some Of My Favorite Things
This blog is dedicated to featuring real estate issues and properties in the Kuna area. With the owner’s permission, I what to make you aware of unique opportunities that may not be on our MLS system for one reason or another.
This featured property is earth insulated, with solar features and is surrounded by mature vegetation and gardens. It is very unique to this area because of it’s energy savings features. Our hydro electricity has been so cheap, we don’t see enough energy efficient building being done with the future in mind. This property has been on my wish list to see for a long time
Built into the side of a hill along the creek,the north side of this house uses the earth as an insulator from the elements and the noises of the country road. You can feel quite secure and private on this 10 acre waterfront property. It even boast a small portion of earthen roof.
The owner states there is over 2400 sq ft of living space, a two car detached garage and a 19×30 ft shop on the property. According to Ada county’s tax roll, there are two parcels that make up this 10 acre lot.
Built in the 80’s during the last gas crisis, this home has 3 bedrooms and 2 baths and a wall of south facing windows to capture that winter sun we enjoy here in Idaho.
The covered patio, I can imagine is well used in the summer time, facing Indian Creek with plenty of farmland and mountain views.
I think this would be a wonderful opportunity by using the second parcel as another building lot. A great homesite with easy access to the interstate and with beautiful Idaho scenery.
Call me if you are interested in exploring this great real estate opportunity. I still haven’t got to see the inside!

Of those 14 building lots, there is an average price of $55,000 to $100,000 per acre.
There are numerous factors that go into pricing of land. Driveways, access,electricity, water,(both irrigated and well), distance from jobs,views, access to interstate and neighbors, all determine the value of the land.

Life, Peace and the Pursuit of Happiness: Land In Kuna Idaho
December 18th, 2007 categories: Buying Land Advice, Featured Properties, Real Estate News
This is the common theme I hear from people attempting to move into this area. All they want is a little piece of land to call their own.
A place to raise their children or animals, a piece of heaven on earth that gives them privacy, peace and freedom to fulfill their dreams.
So with the prices on residential housing coming down, what is the price of vacant land in Kuna Country doing?
The listing price for 1–3 acre parcels is about $80,000 per acre which is lower than 2006 when prices were hovering around $95,000 per acre.
The best deal right now is a parcel that came on the market recently on Kuna Road. This is the best of two worlds in my opinion. You have Kuna School district and Canyon county taxes.
The price is only $55,348 per acre and the lot size is 2.15 acres for a total of $119,000. Enough land to build and be away from the road and plenty left over to do as you please. Kuna road is a well traveled but not scheduled for any improvements. You do have direct roads that will take you north to the interstate and easy access to downtown Kuna for the Friday buffet at El Giro Gallo
If you want to be in a quieter area and the school district is not a factor, another great deal is a 3 acre lot on Robinson Road. It is off the main road with no large farms or developments close by. You have fields on three sides of your property. The total price is $180,000 or $62,000 per acre.
None of these properties are in a subdivision, therefore no restrictions other than what the county requires. You can move a modular home on these properties so long as you have a foundation.
Lots for sale that are in subdivisions offer some niceties like covenants, communities water systems and pressurized irrigation. There are 75 choices in the Nampa area. In Kuna, only one subdivision (Arrowrock) offers 1 acre lots. All these subs will have Home Owners Associations and fees associated with them. Something to keep in mind.
The average price in a subdivision is $90,000–$100,000 per acre
Things to consider when figuring the final costs of any piece of vacant land are:
- Availability of electricity, gas, water, and pressurized irrigation.
- Are you located in a flood zone, close to future developments or road improvements?
- Is there an existing building permit?
- Some potentially expensive ticket items would be driveways, fencing, septic, wells and easements.
All things to count for that final cost of your piece of paradise.
There continues to be good deals in the Kuna area for residential and land. I would love to help you reach your dream,feel free to call anytime.

September 20th, 2007 categories: Featured Properties, Real Estate News
There are all kinds of things to consider when buying brand new construction in Crimson Point. There are many added costs that are not rolled into your monthly house payments. Landscaping, fencing, window treatments,shelving just to name a few. These are not inexpensive features. Plus you can’t really tell what your neighbors are like, or what your neighborhood will be like.
Be sure you take a look at homes listed for sale in Crimson Point. There are quite a few that have all these features already done and done well.
One house in particular on Bisque is worth mentioning. The owners of this home added great upgrades as it was being built, such as quart slab counter tops, tiled shower/bath, upgraded trim, cabinets in the laundry room, dual control,and wood blinds just to name a few. And the best thing is something that can not be added after the house is finished. This dream garage is extra large, insulated, and has room for a full size truck!!
It is huge with great storage and room for all you vehicles and toys.
The yard is one of the largest and is perfect for your kids. Plus the property has a concrete slab to park your RV with a dedicated outside plug in.
You can not get all these features for this price in a new home.
